Okay, with the beginning of spring here come the festivals. The first one is a new one, The Brookhaven Cherry Blossom Festival held at Blackburn Park.They had some food trucks…Grease on Wheels, the Waffle House. They had vendors. There was a huge stage for the musicians. I think the best part was the Doggie Parade….

Staycationers will definitely enjoy a visit to this wonderful park located in Atlanta’s Old Fourth Ward behind Ponce City Market and stretches south to Freedom Parkway and the Carter Center. This was the site of the old Ponce de Leon Amusement Park and it butts up to the BeltLine Trail.

It was a gorgeous day. The playground is one of the nicest I have seen.

This mural was down the street from the park, interesting. This park has really changed this area, it really used to be a scary part of town. The BeltLine trail has had an amazing effect on the city too!
